2. Navarro Bowman:
It wasn’t long ago that Bowman was considered one of the top linebackers in the entire NFL. He’s still pretty darn good and he has 127 tackles from the 2017 season to prove it. Bowman is 29 and has battled a good deal of injuries in the past few seasons. Talent is still there but his age and injury history could drive his price down. Bowman plays very similar to the way Zach Orr did. He is an attacking linebacker who plays fast and he hits brutally hard.

The Ravens could use a linebacker to plug next to C.J. Mosley. Many Ravens fans are fearful that Newsome could draft a linebacker in the first round, again ignoring the wide receiver position. Bowman being signed would alleviate this fear. The linebacker position is a need. If Bowman comes at the right price he will be a welcomed addition to the team.
The Ravens may want to extend the Mosley’s contract. They will get more out of Mosley with a player like Bowman playing next to him. Bowman and Patrick Willis were an epic combination in San Francisco 49ers. Mosley and Bowman could be a similar pairing.
